Objective: Remind the clinical and radiological features of the internal left para duodenal hernia.
Materials And Method: We report the case of a left para duodenal hernia in a 30 years old woman who suffers of an acute abdominal pain explored by ultra sonography, barium upper gastro intestinal radiography, computed tomography and MRI.
Results: CT shows a well limited intra abdominal mass composed of small bowel wrapped in a bag of peritoneum, and moving to the left the mesenteric axis
Conclusion: Left internal para duodenal hernia is a rare phenomenon and is frequently non diagnosed. Spiral computed tomography allows us now, to make the diagnostic with a good sensitivity in the majority of cases.

Left Para-duodenal hernia with distal bowel ischemia: An unusual presentation of the internal hernia: A case report and literature review.

Internal hernias, including Left para duodenal Hernias (LPDH), are rare and challenging to diagnose due to their nonspecific symptoms and complex anatomical presentation. This report presents a unique case of a 29-year-old female with preoperatively diagnosed uncomplicated LPDH, complicated by distal bowel ischemia-a manifestation not extensively documented in existing literature. Initial imaging revealed dilated jejunal loops indicative of LPDH, with subsequent contrast-enhanced computed tomography (CECT) showing ischemic changes in bowel segments distal to the hernia.

Article Synopsis
- - Para-duodenal hernias account for 53% of internal hernias, mostly occurring on the left side, with rare symptoms in adults and a higher prevalence in males; right para-duodenal hernias are particularly uncommon and often discovered during emergency surgeries.
- - A 71-year-old male experienced severe abdominal pain, nausea, and vomiting, leading to a CT scan that identified a right para-duodenal hernia, resulting in an emergency surgery where the hernia was confirmed.
- - Internal hernias, while rare, lead to significant complications like bowel obstruction and ischemia; due to the patient's extensive symptoms at presentation, an exploratory laparotomy was chosen as the surgical approach, ultimately resulting in a full recovery.

Gastrointestinal complications of diabetes are often overlooked, despite affecting up to 75% of patients. This study innovatively explores local glutathione levels and morphometric changes in the gut of Goto-Kakizaki (GK) rats, a type 2 diabetes animal model. Segments of the intestine, cecum, and colon were collected for histopathological analysis and glutathione quantification.

Objective: The aim of this study was to evaluate the experience of using endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD), a technique considered as first-line of treatment, for the management of early neoplastic lesions (ENL), and subepithelial lesions (SEL) < 4 cms in size, in a tertiary-care, high-volume medical center in Mexico.
Method: Patients > 18 years-old, candidates to ESD with ENL and SMT, between January 2008 and October 2022 were included.
Results: ESD was performed in 246 patients (137 ENL and 109 SMT), 52.
